Altered States
Ken Russell / 1980, USA / Color / 102min / 35mm
One of the craziest head-trips ever released by a major studio! Unconventional Harvard scientist Eddie Jessup (William Hurt) performs experiments on human consciousness in a sensory deprivation tank while high on sacred shrooms from a Mexican tribe. He has wild, non-secular hallucinations and, after keeping at it for too long, "devolves" into a primitive monkey man and, eventually, a swirl of primordial cosmic energy. Ken Russell (The Devils, Tommy) channels some seriously psychedelic visions and mind-blowing special effects and John Corigliano's Oscar-nominated score is equally freaky. Screenplay by Paddy Chayevsky (Network). With Bob Balaban and Blair Brown.
"3.5 stars. A magnificent entertainment, and a clever and brilliant machine for making us feel awe, fear, and humor." Roger Ebert

Minnie & Moskowitz
John Cassavetes / 1971, USA / Color / 114min / 35mm
Seymour Moskowitz (Seymour Cassel) wanders aimlessly in New York, seeking love but finding only disappointment. In Los Angeles, museum curator Minnie Moore (Gena Rowlands) is also at a loose end. Moving to LA, Seymour finds work as a parking lot attendant and runs into Minnie as she flees a terrible lunch date. After defending Minnie from her disgruntled companion (Val Avery), Seymour finds himself unemployed and incapable of getting her out of his mind. Minnie tries in vain to separate herself from Seymour, while the latter persistently courts her, remaining baffled by the depth of his affection and surprised at her growing feelings for him. John Cassavetes' fifth feature is his take on the classic screwball comedy and the first of his collaborations with Gena Rowlands to feature her in a leading role.
"The movie is sort of a fairy tale, Cassavetes says; it's dedicated to all the people who didn't marry the person they should have. It is a movie on the side of love, and it is one of the finest movies of [1971]." Roger Ebert
"Takes the opportunity to have a dig at Hollywood and its phoney ideas of romance..." Film4

Love Streams
John Cassavetes / 1984, USA / Color / 140min / 35mm
In this emotional roller coaster ride, Robert Harmon (John Cassavetes) is a street-wise, sometimes obnoxious writer currently working on a book about the seamier side of buying/selling love, and Sarah Lawson (Gena Rowlands) is an emotive wife and mother struggling through a divorce and custody battle. When Sarah lands on Robert's doorstep with her suitcases, it seems at first that she has returned to her husband. Robert has several women staying at his place (research sources!), but when his real ex-wife arrives with their young son, he sends the women packing. Sarah, it turns out, is Robert's sister. As the two work out their own live's hurdles -- Robert, the unaccustomed father with his 8-year-old son, and Sarah, trying to cope with her custody battle and its results -- their way of handling adversity and personal burdens becomes the real subtext of the film. Winner of the Golden Bear Award at the 1984 Berlin Film Festival.
"John Cassavetes's career of risk taking comes to a climax in this rich, original, emotionally magnificent 1984 film." Dave Kehr

Monterey Pop
D. A. Pennebaker / 1968, USA / Color / 78min / Blu-ray, 5.1 surround
One of the greatest concert documentaries of all time! The Monterey Pop Festival ran for three days in June 1967 and launched the careers of Janis Joplin, Jimi Hendrix (with his guitar ablaze) and Otis Redding. Director D. A. Pennebaker (Ziggy Stardust & the Spiders from Mars, Don't Look Back) captured it all—Ravi Shankar's meditative ragas, The Who famously smashing their instruments and the ushering in of a new era of rock and roll. Note: screened via Blu-ray for primo audio fidelity. The film was recently remixed in 5.1 surround by legendary engineer Eddie Kramer (Hendrix, Led Zeppelin, etc.) and will sound great through our new 5.1 audio system.

Easy Rider
Dennis Hopper / 1969, USA / Color / 95min / 35mm, Mono
As Billy and "Captain America," Dennis Hopper and Peter Fonda motored down the highway on their Harley Davidsons to the roaring strains of Steppenwolf's "Born to Be Wild," the definitive counterculture blockbuster was born. Former clean-cut teen star Hopper's down-and-dirty directorial debut, Easy Rider heralded the arrival of a new voice in film, one pitched angrily against the mainstream. After Easy Rider's cross-country journey—with its radical, New Wave–style editing, outsider-rock soundtrack, revelatory performance by a young Jack Nicholson, and explosive ending—the American road trip would never be the same.

Home values in Illinois' most populous county are improving, but the gains may be smaller than would-be sellers are expecting.
First-quarter prices of single-family homes in Cook County increased 3.5 percent from 2012's first quarter and rose 3.2 percent from December, according to a home price index calculated by the Institute for Housing Studies at DePaul University. Meanwhile, first-quarter condominium prices, while down 5.2 percent on a year-over-year basis, rose 1 percent from the end of 2012.
Geoff Smith, the institute's executive director, cautioned against reading too much into the gains. Single-family home prices in Cook County remain down more than 30 percent from their peak in 2006, while condo prices are off more than 50 percent from their 2007 highs.
"It's only one quarter," he said. "If the second quarter and the third quarter show similar increases, then we have a trend.

"There's a lot of enthusiasm about the recovery, and everyone has been waiting for it to happen for a while. It's understandable. Obviously the dynamics of the market are very strange and unusual. This is still not a normal market. You can expect lots of twists and turns in the coming quarters as the market regains normalcy."
Unlike the monthly sales reports issued by the Illinois Association of Realtors that include all sales, DePaul's index looks at a rolling three-month average of repeat sales of the same homes over time. A similar methodology is used by the S&P/Case-Shiller home price index.
The report on improved values comes amid continued reports of strong buyer demand, multiple-offer scenarios and homes selling for above their list prices.
In part, the activity is fueled by escalating mortgage interest rates that are driving would-be buyers to act before rates move even higher.
Interest rates on the benchmark 30-year, fixed-rate mortgage have been climbing for the past five weeks and last week stood at an average of 3.91 percent, according to Freddie Mac's weekly survey, which will be updated Thursday. Higher rates have somewhat dampened enthusiasm for refinancing existing mortgages, but applications for mortgages used to buy homes rose 5 percent last week, the Mortgage Bankers Association said Wednesday.
Home shoppers continue to face a shortage of properties listed for sale.
For instance, in Chicago, 8,234 single-family homes and condos were listed for sale on the local multiple listing service as of June 1, 366 fewer than in early May, according to data from Midwest Real Estate Data LLC prepared for the Chicago Association of Realtors. The lack of inventory is helping drive up prices, but economists have cautioned that a spike in the number of homes available for sale could temper pricing improvement.
In a Fannie Mae survey released this week, 40 percent of consumers said it was a good time to sell a home, up from 30 percent in April and the largest increase in the survey's three-year history.
Yet many Chicago-area homeowners who might like to list their homes and move are unable to because they owe more on their mortgages than the properties are worth. While the number of underwater homeowners declined nationally during the first quarter, Chicago bucked that trend.
About 34 percent of Chicago-area homes with a mortgage were underwater at the end of March, compared with 33.7 percent of homes at the end of December, housing analytics firm CoreLogic reported Wednesday.
DePaul's price index also found that during the first quarter, prices of small rental buildings that had less than five units posted the strongest gains, rising by about 8 percent year over year.
Meanwhile, after a rapid rise in prices for larger multifamily rental buildings for many quarters, beginning in late 2010, their values have continued to recede. First-quarter prices on larger rental buildings were down about 11 percent from a year ago. Smith attributed the softer prices to the delivery of new buildings into the market, offsetting demand.

U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) staff is participating in voluntary standards activities to address hazards associated with cribs including hardware problems, corner post design issues, labeling/warnings and, in particular, crib slat disengagement. In FY 1997, the Commission published an advance notice of proposed rulemaking (ANPR) pertaining to crib slat disengagement. When slats disengage from the crib side rail, a gap is left between the remaining slats. A child may be able to get his or her body through the space but not his or her head, resulting in entrapment and potentially severe injury or death. From January 1, 1985, to June 6, 1996, CPSC was aware of 138 slat disengagement incidents, including 12 deaths.
In July 1999, ASTM published a revised voluntary standard for full-size cribs that included more stringent requirements to address the hazards associated with crib slat integrity. The Juvenile Products Manufacturers Association (JPMA), administrator of a voluntary program to certify cribs meeting the ASTM standard, started including these new provisions in its test program during the summer of 2000. The ASTM standard was revised in 2003, though the requirements pertaining to crib slats were not changed.
In 2001, CPSC staff initiated a program to determine the level of conformance to the new crib slat provisions of the ASTM voluntary standard by crib manufacturers. In 2006, staff is analyzing data associated with crib slat incidents and monitoring plan results.

Can Everybody's Kid Really Be Gifted?We are one of the few parents around who doesn't think our preschooler is gifted. Maybe our expectations for what qualifies as "smart" are too high. But at this point, we're thinking Laszlo is "above average." At best. We hope.
When Laszlo was one-year-old, one mom with a daughter the same age talked about how intelligent her daughter was, claiming she knew "around 100 words." But pediatricians say that toddlers who have just turned one should speak approximately 12 words: And the meaning of "words" at that age is vague. This one-year-old seemed somewhat mute. I had never heard her say more than two "words," one of which was "ba-ba." Which she said when pointing at birds.
Related: 10 things you should NEVER say to a mom
A dad I know said that his daughter could count to 20 in Spanish even though she was not yet two-years-old and Spanish was not their second language. "She's very smart," her dad said. Not only did I never hear his daughter perform this stunt, but his genius daughter was kind of a brat. She hit kids at the playground and talked back to her father. If this kid was very smart, I was fine with having an "above average at best" toddler.
A security guard who I always chat with at my local grocery store told me that his preschool kid tested into a gifted program. This guy may be the only parent I believe. Tests were taken. Gifted-ness was possibly proven. I wish these other parents would show me test results before blabbing on about how brilliant their little ones are.
Even if these kids are highly intelligent, I suspect most of them are going to level out soon enough. Joel and I are living proof of that. According to Joel's parents, he taught himself to read at age 3. He was in the gifted program at his school. But he still can't tell left from right most of the time. I was one of only two kids out of over 100 students deemed "gifted" in early elementary school. My most gifted talent is writing a Babble column that nobody reads.
Related: 16 ways to avoid raising a spoiled brat
It's stupid to judge a kid's intelligence at such a young age. Besides, even if you think your child is smart or gifted, you shouldn't say it out loud. According to "How Not to Talk to Your Kids," an article by Po Bronson, studies show that most students who are labeled "gifted" don't value the importance of effort. Because they have been told that they have a natural talent, they don't try as hard. So, telling your kids that they're smart may cause them to underperform. If their abilities are supposedly based on an innate intelligence, they won't try as hard and they will feel hopeless and give up when they don't immediately do well at something. In a series of research experiments, it was discovered that children who were told that they "worked really hard" at something outperformed children who were told that they "must be smart."
It also comes down to control. It's important that children feel that their level of effort yields rewards. "Emphasizing natural intelligence takes it out of the child's control, and it provides no good recipe for responding to a failure."
Of course you should praise your child. But it shouldn't be because he is "smart" or "gifted." It should be because of an effort that was put forth. Or a specific thing that she succeeded at.

At first, I was worried that I seem to be the only one who doesn't think her kid is a genius. But now that I've read about these studies, I'm comforted by the fact that I haven't spent the past three years telling my son he's smart. Still, 85 percent of American parents think it's important to tell their kids that they're smart. My unscientific focus group of almost every parent I've met, corroborates that 85 percent them are talking about about smart their kids are: To them and to me. But it's detrimental to their kids. And more importantly, it annoys the heck out of me.

I will try to explain my problem correctly, but my computer knowledge is not the best. I try to keep Flash updated when a new version comes out. I thought it was odd because at least 6 months seemed to have gone by with no notice from the Flash Player icon which after the last update appeared in System Preferences--->last row named "Other"--->Flash Player icon. When I opened the Flash Player icon then to the Advanced tab, I saw that it was set to "check for updates automatically." I clicked "Check Now" and it said a newer version is ready to be installed so I heard this "new way" that was in my System Preferences just required one to "check now" and it showed that I needed to update. In just typing this question/Problem to post and going through the steps I am describing I see my installed version is not up-to-date. I have 126.96.36.199 installed. Even when I clicked "check Now" it does not tell me a newer version is ready to be installed.
My main reason for posting this in the Flash Player discussion is I was alerted to a potential problem because it was very unusual that there was not a newer version for that long. As I said, I am anal about keeping Flash Player updated because it seems to work better when I do. However, when I installed the last version (or I should say when I let the installer do the installation of 18.104.22.168) I have had nothing but problems when I watch the online news shows and other shows that can be viewed online. there is constant buffering, it can some times take close to an hour to watch CBS's Nightly News which usued to take abput 25 minutes with a clear, straight stream of the newscast. I was going to uninstall this version and reinstall the latest version, but the Instructions I used to use from the Adobe website seem to been removed and I could not locate any current Instructions for installing the latest Flash Player version on a Mac OS 10.6.8.
Does anybody know why when I was writing this post and I clicked to "check now" to see if there is a more current Flash version it just closed System Preferences, but it took me to the webpage that lists the current version and I see that the current version for MacOS using Safari is not 188.8.131.52 there was a more current version 220.127.116.11 I think it said.
so I have these 2 problems now. the shows I watch on My MacBook Pro 64-bit.
the Instructions I used to have marked had 1 webpage that went step by step to uninstall the current Flash version and the 2nd webpage had a step by step on how to install the current Flash version for Mac. Are those gone now for the automatic update that is supposed to occur when I click the Flash Icon in System Preferences and "Check Now" and if there is a newer version it shold automatically update it to that version but in checking tonight when I was writing this post to make sure I was using the correct terminology I see that there is a newer version so the automatic update is not working.
What really bothers me is the quality of how the online videos playback since the version 22.214.171.124 was installed. ABC News with diane Sawyer, CBS tonight News, NBC Nightly News with Brian Williams, etc.
Any suggestions on how to get the good quality the online videos used to playback and why the automatic update is not working or better yet, are there the Instructions available anymore that used to be posted and Adobe recommended to follow when a newer version was available?
Thanks for any help.
Can you explain how the video playback is poor? Is it not smooth? Blocky? something else?
As for the automatic update, is "check for updates automatically" selected in your Flash Player control panel? Can you check for the presence of a "mms.cfg" file in either /Library/Application Support/Macromedia or your home folder's /Library/Application Support/Macromedia?
Chris- The online videos (I hope I am using the right term so I do not mislead you) buffer about every 10 seconds. Stop, start. Even when I enlarge the screen to make it the size of the 15" display sometimes it will not even playback. It is just the picture that was present when the size was the normal size but the words keep going. Also when I go back to the normal size the entire picture is off center. If a person's head was center when I enlarged it and things looked like they would when the filmed the story, when I go back to the normal size (toggle back and leave full screen mode) the person let's say who they were talking to in the twister report, I can just see the very top of his head. the video does not start out like that, only when I go to full screen and back to normal size screen. there is no stuttering, just the words stop (talking stops) and the buffering line in the middle of the video playing will come on for a few seconds, they will start talking again for a few seconds, and back to no words heard.
when the Flash Player icon was installed in System Preferences (I did not install it, it was installed when I updated to a newer version. One day I saw it in System Pref. and I was surprised) about 2 versions ago, only one time did it alert me that there was a new update. I did see that there was a newer version yesterday when I checked by clicking the Flash Player icon in Sys. Pref. (check for updates automatically is checked but it appears to not be working except one time it warned me of a newer update without me clicking check Now. But yesterday, I clicked Check Now and it did not even warn me there was a newer update. I had 18.104.22.168 for snow Leopard installed. When I clicked "Check now" it did not alert me there was a newer version but I went to the flash Player page that tells you what it the latest version and I saw that a newer version was out. I used the instructions instead of the Flash icon in system pref. to update to the latest version 188.8.131.52. I updated it to that version manually that showed up here http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/ as the latest version.
Now for "mms.cfg." Let me look. Yes check for updates automatically has been selected since it was installed. whenever it was installed it was installed with this selected. I am assuming you mean the Flash Player Control Panel as the Flash Player icon on the last rom called "Other" in System Pref.
In Finder the first one I assume you mean to check in Mac HD/Library/Application Support/Macromedia. NO, it goes to Shockwave 10 after Macromedia. In my Home folder, nope, not there either.
I did notice when I checked to see if the newest version installed in Safari 5.1.2--->Help-->Installed Plug-Ins that thereis something I never noticed before. Under Shockwave Flash there are 2 applications now, there just used to be shockwave Flash but the first one is called FutureSplash Player under Description I do not remember ever seeing this before.
Thanks, I hope this helps. I almost feel like I should go way back to a version when I did not have all of these troubles.
To rule out an installation issue, could you try a quick test and install and viewing the video with Chrome? Do you see the same problems?
If you want to try and go back to a previous version, please see these two FAQ's:
How do I do a clean install of Flash Player?
Where do I find previous versions of Flash Player?
what would you recommedn I do? I thought it was interesting I was reading posts that people were not even able to get this version to install.
what do you think about under Installed Plug-Ins---> shockwave Flash---> 2 applications there now when just shockwave flash used to be there, now there is also FurureSplash Player. Are you familier with this and why would it all of the sudden by under shockwave Flash?
I am not good with computers. I do not understand what you mean about "install and viewing the video with Chrome." I see chrome now when searching Google but I have no idea what it is and what it means to install and view the video with chrome. is chrome a browser? Is it compatible with Mac OSX Snow Leopard? that is all I need is another browser issue
sorry for all the questions-I like to learn.
I would not even know what version to go to.
did that tell you anything that the "mms.cfg" file was not found in the places you told me to look?
On the one page to do a complete uninstall it says toward the bottom;
"At this point, Flash Player should be fully removed from your system. To download the most recent version of the Player for installation, please see these FAQ's:"
Where can I find direct downloads of Flash Player 11 for Windows or Macintosh?
Where can I find direct downloads of Flash Player 10.3 for Windows or Macintosh?
What does it mean where can I find direct downloads of Flash 10.3 for Windows or Macs and where can I find direct downloads of Flash 11 for Macs? I have no idea what these 2 mean, but I would like to know.

Chabot develops a case of Portmania
The Columbus Dispatch - April 11, 2012 2:04 PM
He's not printing up the "Romney/Portman" T-shirts yet, but Rep. Steve Chabot makes it abundantly clear in a new blog post who he wants to be the Republican vice-presidential nominee.
And it ain't Marco Rubio.
"He's honest, hard-working, smart, detail-oriented and dedicated to his own family," Chabot, R-Cincinnati, writes of Sen. Rob Portman, R-Ohio, who, it seems, has been on everybody's short-list of potential GOP running mates for Romney.
Chabot and Portman served together in neighboring districts in the U.S. House of Representatives, and it's no surprise that he'd want Portman to be picked. But what is notable is the energy Chabot puts into his pro-Portman arguments.
The 554-word blog post recites Portman's resume, detail reasons why he'd be a good pick, argues that Portman could deliver the critical swing state of Ohio and points out that former vice-president Dick Cheney commented that Portman, who played the part of Joe Lieberman in mock debates in 2000, was a tougher debater than Lieberman was.

Now select both of them and drag them off to one side or top or bottom depending on how you've arranged them. Now find a complimentary paper and cut 2 different size circles. Position the bigger one behind the photo closest to the center so that one quarter of the circle's outer edge is behind the photo. Position the other circle the opposite of the first circle.

Local boy receives letter from Obama
Flag drawing garners a response from White House
BARSTOW• Imagine the surprise for two Barstow parents when their six-year-old son received a big, brown paper envelope containing a personalized letter and photo from President Obama last Friday.
The envelope, which also included a photo of the first family's dog, a pamphlet about the arts and a photo of the White House, was the result of months and months of waiting for Henderson Elementary student Carson Hughes.
One day, this past summer, Hughes drew a crayon picture of the American flag and wanted to send it to President Obama. After he told his parents, Mike and Rindy—both Republicans—they agreed to give it a shot.
"In my mind, we're just going to play the game," Mike Hughes said. After dropping the picture into an envelope and casually addressing it to the White House—neglecting to add the "1600" part to the Pennsylvania Avenue address—they thought of how to appease their son when, inevitably, the response would never come.
They thought of putting a faux-letter together from the president, but never did.
Last Friday, the real thing did come though and addressed to Carson, himself.
"The whole day was surreal," Rindy Hughes said. She told of how Carson was jumping up and down, running around outside and wanting to tell everyone.
The typed letter, complete with an official White House seal, begins with "Dear Carson, this is just a quick note to congratulate you on your artwork." The rest of the letter details the importance of art education. At the end, it's signed, "Sincerely, Barack Obama."
According to the official White House website, Whitehouse.gov, President Obama reads ten letters from the public each day out of the tens of thousands of letters, faxes and emails he receives. It's unclear if that includes children's letters as well but, either way, the package is one Carson won't soon forget and from a man his parents may not have voted for, but admittedly "really respect" now.

Mills Act Pilot Program
Thank you for your interest in the City of Beverly Hills Mills Act Program.
This two-year pilot program is a self-directed, economic incentive program for owners of locally designated historic properties.
A Mills Act Contract is a 10-year contract between the owner of a City designated landmark property and the City of Beverly Hills. The purpose of a Mills Act Contract is to provide property tax relief for an owner in return for the long-term maintenance and preservation of the property's historic features and character.
In order for your property to be considered for a Mills Act contract under the current two-year pilot program, it must be a designated City of Beverly Hills landmark and satisfy the Mills Act Pilot Program requirements. If you are unsure if your property is a designated or eligible landmark please contact City staff.
On October 18, 2011, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 11-R-12838 authorizing implementation of a two-year pilot program for the Mills Act within the City of Beverly Hills and establishing a contract and fiscal cap of this program.

UF's Donovan Goes For Win #400 Tonight
November 28th, 2011 01:56 PM║ Posted By: John Pennington ║ Permalink
║ Schools: Florida
Tags: Billy Donovan, Final Fours, Mike Krzyzewski, NBA
Tonight when Florida faces Stetson, Gator coach Billy Donovan will be going for the 400th victory of his career. The 46-year-old coach has been a head coach since 1994 and has served in Gainesville since 1996. It's hard to believe that Donovan has been in the SEC that long.
In 16 years at Florida he's won two national titles, been to three Final Fours and cranked out eight NBA first-round draft picks.
For comparison's sake, Mike Krzyzewski is now the game's all-time winningest coach with 907 wins at the age of 64. If Donovan continues to coach into his 60s and continues to enjoy his current level of success, it's likely he'll finish his career ranked among the top four or five winningest college basketball coaches ever.
Good luck to Donovan tonight.

Prime Minister David Cameron welcomes Westfield commitment to Broadway
5:40am Thursday 19th December 2013 in News By Julie Tickner, T&A Reporter
News that it is full steam ahead for the Broadway shopping centre was today welcomed by Prime Minister David Cameron, who said he was "delighted".
He said: "Projects like these stand as a great example to others to show that the regional growth fund has been used to attract the necessary private sector investment to deliver significant and positive change in our cities.
"Westfield has delivered on its commitment to help regenerate Bradford and to build the Broadway scheme, contributing to the Government's growth agenda in the UK.
"We welcome the commitment Westfield has shown in the UK with its previous regeneration work having invested £3.5 billion and created 25,000 new UK jobs already, and we look forward to the realisation of its plans for a further £2.5 billion to be invested in the UK which we understand will create a further 14,000 new UK jobs."

I made this dessert over the summer for our family Fourth of July gathering and several of my relatives are still calling and asking me to make it for them again!

Daily Joke
A young pastor moved to town and decided he would go around and introduce himself to the new congregation. He rang the first door bell and a lady came to the door. She stared at him as he introduced himself.
She said, "I can't believe how much you look like Conway Twitty, the country music singer."
He replied, "Yes, ma'am, I hear that a lot."
He went to the next house and the next, and every lady that came to the door said the same thing—that he looked like Conway Twitty.
At the last house, a shapely young lady came to the door with a towel around her. He started to introduce himself, but she loosened her towel, threw her arms in the air, and screamed, "Conway Twitty!"
The pastor stood there, stunned. Then he said, "Hello, darling!"
